Mentally, the only players who survive in the pros are the ones able to manage all their responsibilities. Everybody struggles in different ways.

I think sometimes in life the biggest challenges end up being the best things that happen in your life.

I would never do anything outside of the rules of play.

Every quarterback can throw a ball; every running back can run; every receiver is fast; but that mental toughness that you talk about translates into competitiveness.

A guy like Malcolm who makes that type of quick, instinctive plays, that's one of his strong suits. I don't think it surprised any of us players because that's what his skill set is.

I'd love to give Malcolm the truck. We're going to figure out how to make that happen.

A lot of people didn't get to see Butler's skills throughout the course of the season.

When you lose, talk little. When you win, talk less.

Butler's interception comes off as a great play, which it really was, at the biggest time of the year.

It's an incredible play, and not only that, that's the type of plays Malcolm makes for our team.

If you don't play to win don't play at all.

If you don't think it.You'll never do it!

And I watch 'Saturday Night Live' religiously, I have since I was a little boy. I watch it basically like one of my favorite sports teams.

Well, here's the thing with relationships on 'True Blood': Once they happen then you have to throw a monkey-wrench into them, because to have people be happy is not that exciting.

I always think that in a big city, anything is possible, including reinventing yourself.

And to write is to sow and to reap at the same time.

Every time I do a movie like 'Finding Neverland' or 'Chocolat' or 'Shakespeare' in Love,' we deal with the creative process, but there's humor and fun along the way. I always love that kind of movie.

A spirit of criticism, if indulged in, leads to a censoriousness of disposition that is destructive of all nobler feeling. The man who lives to find faults has a miserable mission.

That's the great secret of humans: we're all the same person. The best thing to do is just go for the hug.

Suffolk has something more than the coziness of Kent and Surrey. There is a hint of wildness in its tamed beauty, and the tang of the North Sea is never far away.

Your future. It awaits only you, to live it and to write it. - Shaman's Crossing by Robin Hobb
